I am a geek, who likes Linux, and stays away from Windows. I work in computers, networking and such, all on Linux machines. Windows is barely a dumb terminal to my Linux servers.

comment How to auto-restart media playback when connecting the headphones
I installed it and it does not seem to be compatible with the built-in player in my HTC One V phone. The headphones connection is properly detected and triggers the action of starting it, but nothing sounds on it. I guess this is something specific to my player.

My headset is a cheapo one, with no button at all.Don't know whether this would work. I will try it.

comment How to auto-restart media playback when connecting the headphones
I seem to have problems with it. I created the condition and action, but nothing seems to happen. I use the music player that is included with my cell phone, an HTC One V.

comment What are my options for connecting my Android to Ubuntu?
AirDroid is a web-based management system for Android devices. There is no sync function as per se, but you certainly can transfer files as you see fit. And if your device is rooted, you have access to all directories and files.

By the way: Your device does not need to be rooted, as far as I know.

Actually, I am using Linux most of the time (at least the time I can play on my tablet). I'm stuck with Windows at work.

comment What is the process to install cyanogenmod to a galaxy tab 10.1?
I was not sure which file to retrieve to get the Google apps. I understand that I then only have to put both zip files in /sdcard and install them. I assume I install cyanogenmod then google apps (once I figure out the file name to download). What APK should I install to be able to backup the image for an eventual recovery ? I know. I have many questions.
